Leading Naruto to Destroy the World - Chapter 46
The scene before them was too shocking, entirely beyond their comprehension.
Could a Lightning Release technique achieve this effect???
Even the most advanced Lightning Release techniques shouldn’t have such a range and power, right?
This awe and confusion spread among the Uchiha clan members.
As Uchihas, aside from Fire Release, they were most proficient in Lightning Release.
Precisely because of this, they were more acutely aware of the terrifying nature of this sea of lightning!
None of the ninjutsu collected by the Uchiha clan from the Warring States period to the present could match the scene before them!
The range! The power! The duration!
Nothing could compare!
Behind Fugaku, Itachi, who had followed along, watched the crimson-purple sea with flickering eyes.
If, if he could possess such power…
Would it change the fate of the clan?
In Konoha Village, within the Hyuga clan compound.
Hizashi Hyuga, watching over Hinata in the courtyard, suddenly sensed something. His Byakugan veins bulged like earthworms as he looked southeast.
“Oh my god…”
In his Byakugan’s view, he could see.
That endless sea of lightning… there was no chakra in it at all!?
It’s such a massive attack without chakra to fuel it!
This reminded him vaguely of someone from the Third Great Ninja War whose jutsu also showed no chakra presence.
Mirai.
That renowned Blue Flash.
“What on earth is happening?”
Hizashi Hyuga was deeply worried.
…
Within the crimson-purple lightning sea, Obito struggled like a fish out of water, trying to escape but to no avail.
The range of this lightning sea was immense, at least several hundred meters in diameter.
Violent purple lightning currents ravaged the battlefield, completely obliterating the surrounding forest. High-voltage currents repeatedly pierced the ground, carbonizing and decomposing surface soil, forming an increasingly enormous crater.
What terrified Obito most was that this sea of lightning could move.
If he tried to rush out of its range, the four metal pillars standing in the four corners would move along with him.
Ensuring he was always at the center of the lightning sea’s range.
As for using space-time jutsu to escape, forget it!
The moment he stopped phasing, the violent lightning would engulf him instantly!
“Only one minute left of phasing time…”
Despair welled up in Obito’s eyes.
The Kamui’s single eye could only maintain five minutes of phasing time at most.
Now, four minutes had already been used up.
He recalled Mirai’s words before the lightning sea was activated.
A meticulously prepared 30-minute lightning prison just for you…
Thirty minutes!
That was a suffocating number.
Meanwhile, Hiruzen had arrived with his Anbu, instinctively swallowing hard upon seeing the rampaging sea of purple lightning.
“Lord Hokage, there seems to be someone up there.”
An Anbu reminded him.
Following the reminder, Hiruzen looked up, his pupils contracting sharply when he saw the figure floating above the purple sea.
“Is that…”
Mirai???
Only the figure’s back was visible from this angle, but the striking blond hair was unmistakable.
There was no doubt it was Mirai!
Did he create this sea of lightning?
Was he fighting an enemy???
Hiruzen’s mind was in turmoil. His eyes were filled with shock and disbelief, and his thoughts were tangled.
He knew Mirai was strong.
But he never expected him to be this strong!
What are his limits?
Who is his opponent that warrants such a high-level attack?
Almost as soon as they arrived, Uchiha Fugaku and his clan members, coming from another direction, also reached the battlefield.
Staring at the roaring sea of lightning, feeling the tingling static on their faces, the Uchiha clan members felt a deep surge of excitement.
The Uchiha respected strength; the more substantial the ninja, the more respect they earned.
Eyes burning with hunger, Sharingan glowing, they sought the source of this terrifying attack.
Soon, someone spotted the target.
“There!”
Following their clansman’s indication, the other Uchihas also saw the figure standing over the sea of lightning.
From the striking blond hair, they, too, recognized the person.
“It’s Lord Mirai!!!”
Unlike Hiruzen, the Uchiha clan members were almost uncontrollably excited, their Sharingan glowing with enthusiasm and trembling.
Cool!
Too cool!
The source of such power was Mirai, who had close ties with their clan and now lived among them!
Excitement! Exhilaration! Passion! In an instant, all these emotions surged among the Uchiha clan members.
Among the clan members, Itachi looked at the blond figure above the sea of lightning, his eyes shining.
Just moments ago, his father discussed becoming Mirai’s disciple with him.
Initially, he was hesitant.
Hiruzen had also been recruiting him for the Anbu.
But now, there was no more hesitation.
With such power, Mirai might genuinely change the Uchiha clan!
Witnessing this scene, the expressions of Hiruzen and his group, just a few dozen meters away, turned grim.
Especially Hiruzen, whose face looked as if he had swallowed something unpleasant!
One moment, he was worried about Mirai’s displayed power.
The next, he witnessed this group of Uchihas celebrating as if it were a victory!
Where was his dignity as the Hokage?
The Anbu behind Hiruzen exchanged confused glances, not knowing how to react.
The atmosphere grew awkward.
Clearly from the same village, the Uchihas and they seemed like two completely different camps, reacting in opposite ways.
Fortunately, as the tension built, Uchiha Fugaku approached Hiruzen respectfully.
“Lord Hokage, did you come to investigate the disturbance as well?”
This question eased Hiruzen’s expression.
“A commotion like this near the village, as Hokage, I can’t just ignore it.”
“The Hokage always has Konoha’s best interests at heart.”
“Fugaku, who do you think Mirai is fighting?”
“I don’t know.”
Fugaku looked at the sea of purple lightning with a severe expression.
“But we can guess it must be a very formidable enemy.”
…
Mirai hovered above the sea of lightning, gazing down at the struggling Obito.
As he had suspected, the opponent’s phasing ability had a time limit.
And that limit should be approaching soon.
Sure enough, not long after, Obito began to move.
“Damn it! I can’t stay like this!”
Grabbing his swirling mask with a bandaged arm, the single eye through the hole was filled with unprecedented madness and hatred.
The next second!
They are phasing time ended.
Bang!
His body exploded into a mist of blood in the raging lightning, flesh carbonized and disappeared in the intense heat, the entire process taking less than a second.
Obito vanished without a trace.
Not a speck remained.
Above, Mirai floated silently, watching the scene, the breeze blowing through his swaying golden hair.
